    All,
    I have approx 20k to spend and I need a 7 seater, looked at a 2011 Grand CMax and was very impressed, was up for 23,950 though so may be too much. Any other 7 seaters out there that people would recommend?
    Thanks

    The C-Max is a very small 7 seater. The Galaxy has 7 actual seats, the S-Max is a 5+2, and the C-Max is really only a 4+3.

    If you are planning on fitting a lot of child seats, bring them with you on the test drive, and see if they fit.

    The Grand C-Max is a cracking car, but might struggle for a large family.

    I had a driver collect one last Friday, just in time before she went in to have her 3rd child on the Saturday. She had 2 booster seats to transfer and will be sticking a baby seat in as well, which doesn't leave much room at all.

    Middle seat in the 2nd row is only really half a seat and wouldn't be wide enough to take a child seat if there are already child seats on the outer seats. The 2 seats in the back row have very little leg room, but the biggest issue is boot space.

    With the 3rd row seats in place, you'll stuggle to get an overnight bag in the boot - let alone 2 buggys and all the rest of the kit that goes with them. Lovely car to drive (for a people carrier) though.

    Take a look at the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso - http://www.carzone.ie/search/Citroen/C4-Grand-Picasso/1.6-HDi-/713267107926720/advert?channel=CARS
